Solution

To solve this problem, we first need to find out how many marks the student needed to pass. The student got 200 marks and was short by 24 marks, so the passing mark was 200 + 24 = 224 marks.

We know that 224 marks is 35% of the total marks. To find the total marks, we can use the formula:

Total marks = (Passing marks / Percentage) * 100

Substituting the given values into the formula, we get:

Total marks = (224 / 35) * 100 = 640

So, the maximum marks are 640.
